Do you know the difference between an alligator and a crocodile and which one is deadlier?

Donny Kelley, who Works with these creatures, explains some of the features to help distinguish the two. Inter-esting facts should you come across one in the wild!

The first difference pointed out is that a gator has a broad u-shaped snout versus the pointed V-shape of the croc.

The video was filmed at Gator Country in Beaumont, Texas, which is an alligator theme park where guests can see the lifespan of an alligator and get up close and personal with nature’s wild.
